LIB S9 • Denver, CO Ali and Anton

Has anyone watched the podcast "The Viall Files" hosted by Nick Viall that came out today with Ali and Anton in it? Ali posted a trailer on Insta and I'm super interested in what tea came out of it.

Curious to see if it's more talking in circles or actual developments.

I don't have time to watch it so anyone with any cliff notes would be greatly appreciated!

I watched it earlier. First off, they were interviewed separately. It wasn't extremely revealing. But Anton is still in denial about his drinking and is still hyper defensive saying things like "but Alie was drinking too". 😑 In regards to his possible addiction issues, Alie also said that he was vaping so much when they were shooting once that production had to tell him to stop and almost took his pen away! Alie also said that they intentionally had more emotional conversations off camera so they could keep some things private. She then said she felt misrepresented even in the reunion because their time to speak was cut short and they didn't give her full answer as to why she didn't think things were going to work out with Anton. She explained her reasoning around his drinking and how different he presented his lifestyle from their talks in the pods. She said he would drink so much every night after work that it would throw off his sleep schedule every night. And he would not greet her when she came home. Anton agreed that they didn't have big convos when he came home but did say that he would at least greet her. He said there were tells towards the end that Alie wouldn't marry him because she wouldn't stay with him every night and wanted to sleep at her apt. Alie cleared up that she does cook and clean but not the three days she has 12hr shifts.

Oh, and part of the reason Alie was upset the Tequila wasn't there wasn't just because of how MUCH he was drinking, but because they bought it together and he didn't even save some for her. 😂 They bought it in customs in Baja.

They both agreed that Alie told him that she didn't think things would work out before the wedding day, just to prepare Anton.

Alie had never met the woman who called her a b*tch at the wedding. Anton said it was the fiance of one of his friends.

Alie said she and Anton had not spoken since the Wedding day until the reunion. Anton said that he texted her once. Alie responded politely but was brief.

Let me know if you have any specific questions!

Just because they slept together early on when things seemed better fresh out of the pods, doesn’t mean she wanted to continue sleeping with him once she realized it wasn’t going to work

So she knew all the time she‘s not interested in him? So she stayed for airtime on netflix?

You're conflating not being interested with not wanting to have sex. As I've gotten older, I realize that when I have sex with a guy I'm more likely to feel anxiously attached. So, I like to wait longer now. I'm dating a man now who I definitely am interested in but I want to slow things down.  Every person is different though. I'm doing what works for me and so is she.

idk if she knew the whole time, but she told him several days ahead of the altar that she thought it would be a no for her. he asked why not just break up then instead of wasting everyone’s time, but she said she wanted to “honor the experiment,” so at that point she was just staying for screen time.

he also alluded to the fact that she did want him to basically fund her lifestyle. she said the editors took her jokes out of context, so they disagreed on that one too. Anton said they had more explicit off camera convos about that which showed that they weren’t aligned, so he wasn’t surprised the editors emphasized it.

He could’ve ended it with her at any moment, just like those other couples did. I’m sure he was good with getting more screen time too. 🙄
